How to store output from command to a path?

I am currently running a command and it is producing the compressed file. I need to store that zip file into c:\windows\abc.zip. Does anyone know how to do that?

MY current command is something like this: cd %path% cdx.exe

I have tried specifying the path after cdx.exe but it doesn't store in that path. It is running the exe but storing on my desktop instead of c:\windows.

Hope it make sense.

From stackoverflow
  • > will output to a file (>> will append)

    so try

    cdx.exe > c:\windows\abc.zip
    

    See the echo section here: List of DOS Commands

    Charlie Salts : I had this same problem once, but I was using | instead. I forgot I was on a machine that was neither *nix nor with Cygwin.
    alice7 : i tried this and it didn't work on some of the servers on which Im tryin to run abc.exe.some of them got successfull but other's failed
